May be some kind of "short interview format" is better. Most of the project pages tell what the project do, and showcase it, but having a personal author's view on why this project and the technology behind (Pharo/Smalltalk) is important would be a valuable addition and add the human story side to the campaign.

You've inspired me to consider a new subproject. It's tentatively called "Smalltalk Showcase" (although I'll try to come up with a better name) and it will present a series of stories about Pharo/Smalltalk developments that demonstrate the incredible versatility and usefulness of Smalltalk. (It doesn't have to be Pharo, but I'll be pleasantly surprised if there are cool developments in Squeak, Cincom, Dolphin, GNU, etc.)
Here's an open call to Pharoers (and Smalltalkers) everywhere: Submit a favourite project, including a URL to a website or repository that shows the project in the best light, as well as an "abstract" that nicely summarizes what the project is trying to accomplish. I'll select the ones that are most interesting and do work-ups on them. If necessary, I'll query for more details in an email reply. Send all submissions to: richard.eng@outlook.com
Most appreciated.
By the way, the first story will be on Grafoscopio.
